Creme Brulee Cake: Secret Recipe

Ingredients

This delicious creme brulee cake requires a few simple ingredients. You'll need: two cups of all-purpose flour, two teaspoons of baking powder, one teaspoon of baking soda, one-half teaspoon of salt, one-half cup of butter, one-half cup of white sugar, one-half cup of light brown sugar, two eggs, one teaspoon of vanilla extract, one-half cup of sour cream, one cup of heavy cream, and one cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and flour a 9-inch cake pan. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then add in the vanilla extract. Slowly add in the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in the sour cream and heavy cream until fully incorporated. Finally, stir in the chocolate chips. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Assembly and Caramelization

Once your cake has finished baking and cooled, cut it into two even layers. Place one layer of the cake onto a cake plate and spread an even layer of caramel sauce over the top. Place the second layer of the cake over the caramel layer and spread an even layer of whipped cream over the top. Finally, top with a generous amount of caramel sauce and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt. Place the cake into the refrigerator for at least one hour before serving.

Serving

Remove the cake from the refrigerator and slice into individual pieces. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a sprinkle of chopped toasted hazelnuts. Enjoy!
